You don't need anything like SOAP or Java Applets. You have everything you 
need with PHP and mySQL.

Basically on each mouse click on the target day, you just send a query 
string with information of the day selected and the state of that day, and 
store that in the DB. When you got o build the calendar view, you grab the 
days in question along with their states, and display accordingly.

Not much to it.
